H.U.R.T
I Refuse

"W-what do you mean? In-she's your lover?"

"Yes, and you seduced her, tried to snatch her from me!" Oleshia roared furiously. His eyes stared angrily at Lexi and Steve.

While Alena who is a witness of the love triangle story can also only flinch in place while focusing on staring at her daughter who has begun to pale and panic. Lexi's at least to blame. She'll feel hated and Lexi won't like it.

"I didn't seduce him. Not wanting to seduce or take it. Really."

"No taking it?! Then why did you kiss her?"

"Because I feel like she's my lover. At least a few minutes ago."

"Ten years more, we've been in contact for ten years. Can you imagine what we've been through?" Tears began to wash over his face.

Lexi felt guilty as well as shaken knowing that. Ten years is not a short time. The fact that he had really taken Oleshia's lover this time had thrown her memories into the past. Where the female twin sister accused him of the same thing.

"I'm sorry. I really don't know."

"I'm sorry? I don't know if Willson's daughter is so cheap."

"Please watch your words, Oleshia! You've gone too far" Steve said cynically.

"You defended him?! Defending women from men who...."

"I said shut the fuck up." This time his intonation was calm and seductive, but not with his unsheathed gaze.

"You hurt me..." The tears of the woman became. In the midst of the chaos that ensued. The door of the room opened again. Beth appeared with a severed breath.

"Steve, I forgot to say that Oleshia is here too. He saved Lexi..." His sentence hung in the air as soon as it became aware of Oleshia's presence. "Oh... You have met. You're busted, man." Beth was supposed to laugh, but she was distracted by the sudden atmosphere of horror. For the first time he sees Oleshia crying, while Steve remains calm as usual and Beth as usual is upset herself.

"Lexi is sick. Don't be so noisy. It's good you guys left. Let Lexi rest."

Beth chokes on hearing the man's direct expulsion. Seeing Oleshia's cry, Beth suspects that the girl witnessed something sweet but painful. And what did that fucker Steve do? Expelled them, including Oleshia. Hey, he just got caught!

"You're the one who has to go. I don't want to see you."

Steve turned his head, Lexi looked at him full of anger. The girl looked sad.

"You're the one who has to go, Ivarez! Don't ever show up in front of me again!"

Lexi turned her face away as if she was no longer willing to look at her face. Steve swallowed the saliva violently, not liking the girl's reaction.

"Never turn your face away from me, Lexi Stevani Willson."

Lexi turned her head quickly, the anger increasingly glistening clearly in her eyes. "After what you've done, you still hope I keep looking at you with an adoring look?!"

"I'd be flattered if you looked at me like that. I don't know if you adore me so much."

"Go!"

"Don't kick me out."

"So what do you expect? I pulled my words a few minutes ago. I don't want to be your girlfriend!"

Steve glanced at his watch, a response Lexi did not expect. All four of them cared about time in such a precarious situation.

"Ten minutes. We've just officially become lovers and you've ended it. Sorry, Lexi. I refuse."

Oh my God, is there a man who is more stingy than this man?

"You think I want to be an affair, asshole!"

"No one will make you an affair" he said gently. He tried to grab Lexi's hand but the girl brusquely brushed it off.

"Go, Ivarez. Don't make me look worse in front of your lover" she said in a weak tone. "Solve your business, don't involve me."

"Oleshia, let's end it all. End this fun."

"Happy? You're saying ten years is a pleasure?"

"That's what happened. We are partners. Partner in bed."

Anyone who heard Steve's remarks, obviously, felt humiliated, including Oleshia. He felt harassed and he was riled up for this humiliation.

"Partner's on the bed you said. As I recall, you said you loved me." Oleshia was really hurt over the man's rude remark. He did not expect that Steve would utter such a vile sentence.

"Just because I say fire, doesn't mean my mouth will burn.

"You bastard, Steve!"

"Yes, that's my middle name. Since our problem is over, it's good that you leave." Steve turned his gaze to Alena. "I'm sorry for this unpleasant surprise. I really love your daughter..."

"Just because you say fire, doesn't mean your mouth will burn." Lexi interrupted by throwing back the man's sentence.

Steve smiled, not feeling surprised at all. "It's cheating, Lexi. Quoting someone else's sentence is not allowed."

Oleshia felt hot looking at the smile engraved on the man's face. A smile that Steve never showed in front of him. "I swear, things aren't gonna be this easy, Steve!" After making the threat, Oleshia immediately set foot.

"You're the most asshole I've ever seen, young man." Alena finally opened her voice.

"I hope your judgment doesn't affect your rest on me," he glanced humorously. You shameless bastard! Steve was acting silly, but Beth was embarrassed. But he must admit that the man's calmness was indeed invincible. Beth had to study with him.
